If Debbie decided she wanted to use drugs or sell her body for sex to strangers...well, she is a criminal now!

Birth control fails. Women make mistakes using birth control. Men remove the condom during sex without informing the woman. Your world may be perfect, and you may not have ever made a mistake, but that's not real life. And that's ignoring the fact that it is really none of your business whether a woman has an abortion.

Only 0.3% of all abortions are due to rape.

95% of all unintended pregnancies are due to the complete failure to use any birth control at all (54%), or using it incorrectly/inconsistently (41%) such as forgetting to take one or more pills during a cycle.

Women are ALREADY making the VOLUNTARY choice to be pregnant 95% or more of the time.
Once again, you spout blah, blah, blah and dream of a perfect world, and conveniently forget that it is absolutely none of your business whatsoever whether a woman ahs an abortion.

You couldn't be more wrong. The "Irresponsible Debbies" (referred to as "IDs" for the rest of my post) have too much to drink at girls' night out and get behind the wheel, driving drunk: humans die. The "IDs" just can't keep from texting while driving because, OMG did you SEE Lisa flirting with Suzie's boyfriend?, etc...: humans die. The "IDs" CHOOSE to have sex without using the FREE birth control available at the 4,000+ taxpayer-funded Title X Family Planning Clinics located throughout the US: humans die when 700,000 "IDs" get abortions each year.

You are VERY mistaken if you think people's deliberately irresponsible actions impact no one else.

Why would I care about those activities as long as she's not creating a hazard for others. Besides, most of the anti-drug laws don't penalize drug use, they penalize possession or sale.

1. False analogy.
2. What other women decide to do in a situation of unwanted pregnancy is none of your business. Let me repeat, none.

Exactly. Both are "her body, her choice" but aren't legal in many cases.

Nope. It's a correct analogy. You just don't like that it exposes your callousness.

Given that it's none of my business whether a woman has an abortion, no. It's none of your business either.
